Flash Animation in HTML page

I have an HTML site (unfortunately only an intranet site so I
can't share) that has swfs used in various places. The home page of
the site has a movie that I would like, if possible to only play
when a user enters the site. If, during a session they leave the
home page for another page within the site, and then come back to
the home page, I would prefer them not to see a particular
animation again because once they've seen it, it can be annoying to
see it each time they come back to the home page. Is there a way,
with javascript, to make this happen? I don't think it is anything
I can build into the movie with flash.

what about using cookies and two versions of the page--one
with and one without animations? an if statement could look at the
cookie and load accordingly, maybe.

How to show a MPEG4/H.264 video in Flash in an HTML page?

Maybe my title isn't clear. I am hoping someone can shed some
light on the h264 use in flash.
Instead of displaying a progressive download .FLV video , I
am trying to have an MPEG4 /h.264 approx. - a 30meg video display
in flash in an .html page. Quicktime is easy to do, but Flash is my
goal.
I read several articles on h264 and flash 9, including this
adobe
H264 article but was hoping there might be an easier and maybe
quicker solution. I did try renaming the .mp4 extension to .flv in
dreamweaver but it did not display the video. (...unless it was
downloading the video completely before displaying...not sure)
There is a ton of sites, blogs and articles on h.264 and how
flash 9 will display it...but when it comes to how one might
actually have h.264 in flash on their own site...I am finding it
difficult to figure out.
Forgive my lack of action script and Flash knowledge...any
direction is appreciated.
Erick

...well I did follow that article on playing an h264/mpeg4
video in flash. It works well, but how would you add playback
controls?
FLVPlayback component only allows you to source an FLV video
not h264/mpeg4.
This is probably a simple as3 answer...but I am not
knowledgeable on as3 to know what code to add.
Any suggests or direction that I should look would be great.
In the meantime I am researching actionscript 3 to find and anwer.

Calling a function in flash on an HTML page

Hi,
I need help regarding how to call a flash function from an HTML page. The idea is to have a link on my page (HTML link) that once clicked displays a movieclip in flash. I know i have to use the asfunction in HTML. So far I have just created my swf file with a function called showInfo. I've embedded the flash into an HTML page. I have then added a link on the HTML page as follows:
<a href="asfunction:showInfo">Link name</a>
but when I click it says:
"Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because the protocol (asfunction) isn't associated with any program."
is there a piece of code I need to write in flash for this to work?
Thanks
Eugene

have your html link call a javascript function and use the externalinterface class in flash to communicate between javascript and actionscript.

Flash animation to html conversion hairline problem

Hi. I am Suzi. I am currently working in Flash CC and working with some animations. I am needing to turn the Flash animations in to HTML and Java Script which are being viewed on iPads, iPhone and on the net. My issue is that when they are eventually view they loose all quality and also have a warning sign stating that
"Warnings generated while copying/importing in (name of the file)
*some artwork contains hairline stroke, which is not supported in HTML5 Canvas document, and has been converted to solid.
The animations come out with a lot of white section obviously the hairlines. I do not have the ability to change the 120 animations nor the time. Is there a way we can fix this problem? Thanks

This animation is a frog. When he jumps or moves we can see the white behind the frogs eyes its seems to move slower than the rest of his image. Also there seems to be white hairlines across the animation, only flashes up quickly but I cant use him this way. . Put it this way the animation doesn't come out clean. I assume its because of the stroke change. Now maybe this is not the reason.
as you can see there is a hairline across his arm. this is viewed in Fire Fox IE, etc. This is a Flash Doc changed into a HTML canvas from AS3 document format.
These animations were produced years ago and are copyright for the company i work for.
They are looking at making these flash files available on every media for their employees (coaches).
There is a PC based program called COMPOSICA that is a learning program and has modules that the teachers need to use.
This is the base of where the animations need to start. the program is then used through the web on ipad, iphones etc.
So bottom line is we need the cleanest image we can get.
So i assume that makes sense...hee hee
Thank you Suzi

To not reload from start flash animation on web page

Hi,
I've done a nice flash animation which is in fact an ad
banner.
This banner should be displayed on my customer website in
each pages.
However, in order to be sure that customers of my client will
see the
whole flash animation, i would like to be sure that it's not
reloaded
from the first frame.
is there something like a frames counter which can be
memorized by PHP
pages server ?
i mean on page welcome.php, my banner will be displayed.
let's say that after few seconds (35 frames for example), the
customer
click on a link "prices.php".
on this prices.php page my ad banner is once again displayed,
but i
would like to make sure it starts from frame 36 for example,
and not
from frame 1.
how can i do that ?
thanks a lot,
RAF

Ha! thanks certified. the DW experts are pointing at Motion or Episode. I have confirmed that the file won't loop right out of Episode, so that leaves DW off the hook, i think. But what to do?
Perhaps my workflow is flawed. I don't want to use Aftereffects to create web animations anymore. I want to use Motion. But this is a showstopper. .swfs are supposed to loop by default, so I can't imagine what's wrong. thanks for anymore advice.

Flash plays before html page is completely loaded

A flash intro for a website's homepage starts to play before
the html page
elements are completely loaded and visible. The html page is
not
complicated so it would seem the flash is even slowing down
the loading of
the html and it looks bad, but not terrible. Is there a way
to, like,
prioritize the loading of the page elements?

Sorry, I didn't design the HTML page but I'm sure it was
tested in a few
different browsers. I'm not sure if it happened on all or
some. The sites
already live so the designer did not think it was a problem.
Just thought
there may be a stacking order or something that would load
the background
before the Flash starts playing. Thanks for your help.

Correct way to place a Flash anim on a page

Hello, looking into well made sites I have seen code like
this to place a Flash object/animation:
<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
data="/common/flash/c.swf?path=/common/flash/nav-about.swf"
width="593" height="180">
<param name="movie"
value="/common/flash/c.swf?path=/common/flash/nav-about.swf" />
<param name="quality" value="high" />
<param name="scale" value="noscale" />
<param name="salign" value="LT" />
<param name="wmode" value="opaque" />
<object>
On the site Im building there is going to be a Flash
animation and my code looks like this:
<object
classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="
http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=7,0,19,0"
width="326" height="407">
<param name="movie" value="images/gk_flash_intro.swf"
/>
<param name="quality" value="high" />
<embed src="images/gk_flash_intro.swf" quality="high"
pluginspage="
http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"
type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="326"
height="407"></embed>
</object>
Dreamweaver gives me a message about the new Explorer, and
the code required for it, but Firefox doesnt show the page. Please
point me towards some docu that will instruct me as to the proper
placement of the Flash.

Continuity in Banner Animation between HTML pages..

I have a banner animation at
http://www.sierratec.com/skills.html
that plays a series of slides at the banner.
I need the animation to continue, from the previous
transition slide before other html like products, clients etc., are
clicked.
For ex. If we are in the skills.html page and we navigate to
partners section , then the animation at the banner must continue
from the place from where it was left before leaving the the skills
section and before clicking the partners section and not start from
the beginning as it is seen now.

When javascript window.focus() is invoked and there are more than 1 IE windows open the focus will go
to the IE window that executed the window.focus();
If you have notepad open and focused it will not focus on the IE window (you need an API call to do that)
Anyway, you can call a javascript function from java, here is an example:
// new class for jsObject!!!! compile this: C:\harmpie>javac -classpath "C:\Program Files\Java\j2re1.4.2_01\lib\plugin.jar" test.java
// since jaws.jar does not exsist anymore
// to compile: javac -classpath "C:\j2sdk1.4.0_03\jre\lib\jaws.jar" someApplet.java
import netscape.javascript.*;
public class someApplet extends java.applet.Applet {
    JSObject win;
    public void run(){
         try{
             win = JSObject.getWindow(this);
                     win.eval("window.focus();");
        }catch(Exception e){
             e.printStackTrace();
    public void init() {
          new Thread(this).start();
}

Link Edge animation to HTML page?

Is there a way to link my Edge animation to an Index HTML page in the same folder as the Edge.HTML? I linked a webpage with the OpenURL trigger and it worked. But I would like to link it to the index page within the same folder so that I can test it before uploading it to the internet.
The trigger link that worked is:
window.open("http://www.mywebsite.com", "_self");
But can I use something like:
window.open("index.com", "_self");
Thanks,
Susan

Susan-
You don't need the sitename - just use this (assuming you are calling it from the same directory as you said):
window.open("index.html", "_self");
Else, you should be able to use this if it one folder deep:
window.open("../index.html", "_self");

Play a flash animation in same page

Hi,
i am trying to build my online portfolio and i wish to play
my flash animation portfolio on same page when user click specific
button, everything was fine, except when i try to import the swf
file (publish from my flash animation portfolio) to library and
create a movie clip symbol, i found the import swf file not running
same as original, some fade in and mask effect missing and speed
are totally difference. Appreciate anyone could help.
Thanks.

i think that's expected behavior. importing a swf file is
probably not what you want to do.
you can load a swf file and you can drag and drop movieclips
from one swf into another without problem.

How to embed Flash Player into HTML page

Hello,
I have a question for some gurus who know very well the
Javascript.
Namelly what i want is to add <object> tag to the
current html page programatically with using JAVA SCRIPT.
As IE is more forgiving it displays the object properly but,
in Firefox it behaves a bit different. Actually it doesn't appear
at all in Mozilla browser. Any good sample would be great help.
I was wondering what i am doing wrong?
Thanks :)

thanks.
i am giving my problem clearly. i have one applet. Previously i am loading the applet in my html page using object tag like this...
<OBJECT
classid="clsid:8AD9C840-044E-11D1-B3E9-00805F499D93" WIDTH="1000" HEIGHT="300" NAME="grid">
<PARAM NAME="CODE" VALUE="com.adp.base.applet.PriceGrid.class" >
<PARAM NAME="ARCHIVE" VALUE="common.jar,classes12.jar,toplink.jar" >
<PARAM NAME="NAME" VALUE="grid" >
<PARAM NAME="type" VALUE="application/x-java-applet">
<PARAM NAME= "cache_option" VALUE ="no">
</OBJECT>
now what i need to do is
i need load the applet only first time using web start and when ever the applet code changes in the server i need to reload the applet.
for that i kept all the applet resources in .jnlp file.i want to cache all the resources which are in .jnlp file and applet must be displayed within a web page within a browser.
Webstart always open a new application windows.
I need to run an Applet embedded within a web page within a browser.
Is there a way to still use Webstart?

Flash image and html pages

I do have an SWF sequence of images in the main html page. In
the second page I do have sections. Each section has a title of an
image of the SWF file. The role of this section is to describe the
image.
I trying to whenever I click on each image of the SWF in the
main page, I should be directed to its description in the second
page, meaning, that the second page should be loaded and its scroll
down bar should go down and stop where the specific section
(describing the image I’ve just clicked on) starts.
